@Wymsprocket Not currently, no; this is a tool to support manual placement. Maybe at some point in the future.

Is there a way to apply this on existing buildings or apply settings to all buildings as they spawn? For example, I like the green cities eco low residential buildings but I don't like that they all have a gravel surface. If I use this addon and set surface texture to no texture they look great when I plop them. But I'd like to not have to plop them, just have them spawn in that way.

@DaOPCreeper No; you do that via the use of building themes (and/or Loading Screen Mod Revisited prefab skipping). Possibly in conjunction with Advanced Building Level control if you want to 'skip' levels.
DaOPCreeper 25 Aug @ 10:00am 
does this mod allow me to allow only a certain building to spawn. Like say i only want specific model of level 3 low density housing will this let me force the game to only that model when a building reaches level 3?

Thank you for response, have a nice day.

@Bendinian This mod has been designed to have zero performance impact, and has been tested to confirm this.

Hi, I really love your Mods and when I installed it, the game started lagging. Is this a usual effect caused by the Mod?
algernon  [author] 16 Jun @ 5:46am 
@mrdo2000 Yes In fact, this mod was specifically created to be the 81 Tiles 2-compatible mod for these functions, since the old Building Anarchy mod wasn't compatible (and couldn't be fixed).
mrdo2000 15 Jun @ 11:53pm 
is this compatible with 81 tiles?

@reaamann Use Ploppable RICO Revisited and ensure you've activated the option in the options panel for growable buildings to survive outside of the correct zone (see that mod's wiki for more details).
reaamann 21 May @ 12:20am 
Growable buildings keep despawning when placeing, even when choosing a placement. How to stop them from deswaping?

i want to place houses etc

@Lord Bloodfart There are powerline network assets on the Workshop that you can place along roads when using Network Anarchy. And even some roads that come with powerlines built in. Neither of which have anything to do with this mod, of course.
algernon  [author] 13 Jan @ 2:56pm 
@pablopmorales99 Yes, if you change the placement mode.
pablopmorales99 13 Jan @ 12:53pm 
Does this mod allow you to place a building wherever you want?
LanYou_1250 4 Dec, 2024 @ 1:52am 
@algernon I tried, but can't seem to reach the creator (Quboid)...
It seems that this problem will not be solved for a while.
algernon  [author] 26 Nov, 2024 @ 2:56pm 
@CW_1250 Okay, so a different problem. That's how Move It is currently working - have you raised it with its creator already?
LanYou_1250 26 Nov, 2024 @ 6:27am 
@algernon The problem I'm having is kind of like the one Frog GamePlays had, but not exactly the same (both happened when using Move it) - My problem is that when I use Move It to move a building whose foundation followed a smooth terrain, the state of the building changes and it becomes forced to have a flattened terrain.
Simply put, Move It is changing the terrain mode that Building Control set for the building. (English isn't my language, my expression might not be accurate. Sorry about that.)
algernon  [author] 25 Nov, 2024 @ 2:35pm 
@CW_1250 Sorry, I'm confused - is that two issues? Or do you mean something else? Or just the same as what Frog GamePlays says and what you wrote is incorrect?
LanYou_1250 25 Nov, 2024 @ 3:59am 
I ran into a problem similar to @Frog GamePlays. When I used Move It to move the foundation of a building to follow the height of the terrain, it would switch to the state of forcing the terrain to be flat instead of following the terrain height like before.
algernon  [author] 16 Jun, 2024 @ 4:23pm 
@blackbackpack Understood, but if you're looking at free-range visuals then that's really your only option. This mod adds additional controls and flexibility to buildings - but they're fundamentally still buildings, and that comes with inherent restrictions. I don't know *exactly* what you're trying to achieve, so I can't give any advice other than to try it and see if it works for you.
blackbackpack 16 Jun, 2024 @ 7:39am 
@algernon yes but P.O. its giving me too many issues and has too many features that i'ill never use...
algernon  [author] 15 Jun, 2024 @ 9:26pm 
@blackbackpack In conjunction with Move It you might be able to achieve that, but I'd recommend using something like Procedural Objects instead if you want to do that.
blackbackpack 15 Jun, 2024 @ 5:55am 
Can i make floating buildings with this mod? like no foundation or terrain, just the building vibing in the air :)
aikewei 12 May, 2024 @ 8:08am 
Your Mods Are Incredible.Well Done!The building no longer needs to worry about the exit. It can be repaired wherever you want.
algernon  [author] 18 Apr, 2024 @ 5:11pm 
@Frog GamePlays I'll take a look at it. Nobody's requested that before.
Beluga 18 Apr, 2024 @ 7:19am 
Hi! The copy with move it dont work with your mod. Only old mod. I set building with params, plop it, but when i copy building, it lost the configuration and i need to do one by one. Can i have a way to copy the sets?
Purple Brick 13 Apr, 2024 @ 10:21am 
@algernon Alright, thanks a bunch! ^^
Saplaiceen 24 Mar, 2024 @ 8:39pm 
oh wow, thanks so much! i was beginning to think it was either something that got removed, or a false thing from a dream!
algernon  [author] 24 Mar, 2024 @ 8:37pm 
@Saplaiceen Try Customize It Extended .
Saplaiceen 24 Mar, 2024 @ 10:27am 
wasn't there a mod that could modify like, service buildings in-game? like, i could modify how many fire trucks spawn per building or how many students a school can have, like in the asset editor? i thought it was this but i cannot find such settings or a mod that does so.
algernon  [author] 16 Mar, 2024 @ 4:29pm 
@Purple Brick Advanced Building Level Control .

Abandonment is part of building leveling, so doesn't fit with this mod, which is about building placement.
Purple Brick 16 Mar, 2024 @ 8:52am 
What do people these days use to stop buildings from being abandonned? Are there plans to incorporate it into this mod?
algernon  [author] 14 Jan, 2024 @ 2:10pm 
@MacBurn The "slope is too steep" restriction is a network restriction, not a building one. You can try "Network Anarchy".
MacBurn 14 Jan, 2024 @ 1:07pm 
I am looking for mod that will allow me to place a metro station even when vanilla says "slope is too steep". Does this mod do that? if so, how? It does not seem to be working
algernon  [author] 20 Oct, 2023 @ 7:51pm 
@Pixelclone Not yet - that's already on the list of planned features, though.
Pixelclone 20 Oct, 2023 @ 7:26pm 
Am I able to change the settings of the building once it is placed? I only get the Building Options panel before placing, but not after, so if I place a building then realise later it needs a certain connection, I can't find a way to update it without deleting it and replacing it.
algernon  [author] 19 Oct, 2023 @ 10:23pm 
@paulp575123 Yes, I'm afraid at this point it looks like an issue with Steam - you'd need to contact them directly. Good luck!
paulp575123 19 Oct, 2023 @ 9:17pm 
@algernon - Should I ask for support for Cities Skylines or is this a Steam problem - that this Mod won't install and that I'm not getting notifications of posts in this thread?
paulp575123 19 Oct, 2023 @ 9:14pm 
@algernon - Went through the steps to verify installed games. Found no problems.
algernon  [author] 16 Oct, 2023 @ 2:54am 
@nilepereiraa Added to the list!
nilepereiraa 16 Oct, 2023 @ 2:42am 
Is it possible to add a defaults option in the settings? I don't want to have to manually set every building I place as "Pathside or Ground", I want to set that as the default and change it as needed
algernon  [author] 9 Oct, 2023 @ 9:35pm 
@paulp575123 I'm certainly getting the notifications, as are others - if you're having issues, try Steam support.

Your local steam client has an option to manually verify your game files - see here .
paulp575123 9 Oct, 2023 @ 9:15pm 
@algernon - Not sure what you mean by "verified your local game files via your Steam client". Every time I open CS to play, it does a verification and no errors pop up.

Is there a way to manually verify my local game files with online CS?

I think there's something wrong with this asset's web pages because I don't get notifications via e-mail of your replies. I've posted comments before on other assets pages and got an e-mail that there was a response. And yes above this comment it does say "Subscribe to this thread" and there is a check mark before it.
algernon  [author] 3 Oct, 2023 @ 5:37pm 
@paulp575123 I honestly don't know if changing it to somewhere within the US would have any practical effect, but I'm not an expert on Steam downloading.

No, mods and assets can't "block" each other, so that's not the issue.

I assume that you've verified your local game files via your Steam client?
paulp575123 3 Oct, 2023 @ 2:45pm 
@algernon - Found where to change it. Changed from "US - Seattle" to US - Los Angeles". Didn't help. Still not downloaded.
I do see a new folder in this folder: D:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\255710.
Is it possible one of my other mods and/or assets is blocking this mod? I Only have 48 mods and about 250 assets plus 28 DLS (according to Skyve).
If so, should I disable all my other mods and then unsubscribe and re-subscribe to this mod and then re-enable my other mods?
I have a Skyve shortcut on my desktop. When I click on it it opens, but I still don't see this mod listed.
algernon  [author] 2 Oct, 2023 @ 4:44am 
@paulp575123 Steam settings (I think via Steam client -> Stem menu -> settings is easiest), then go to 'Downloads' on the menu to the left. At the top of the Downloads page should be the 'Download region' setting.
paulp575123 1 Oct, 2023 @ 1:48pm 
@algernon - "Steam download region"? What is that and where might I change that?
algernon  [author] 1 Oct, 2023 @ 2:38am 
@paulp575123 Definitely a Workshop issue. One thing you could try is changing your Steam download region to somewhere else, restarting your computer, and then changing it back. Beyond that, I'm out of ideas, I'm afraid; if that doesn't work you'll need to contact Steam support.
paulp575123 30 Sep, 2023 @ 5:03pm 
@algernon - I forgot to mention I am logged into the Workshop and even though I'm subscribed to the Comments, I'm not getting notifications of your replies.
paulp575123 30 Sep, 2023 @ 5:02pm 
@algernon - Yes, It's still not loading.
I even checked the Windows Task Manager to ensure neither Skyve and Cities : Skylines were not running when I first unsubscribed; waited 5 minutes; and resubscribed.
After resubscribing, I don' see the folder (2996538702) in the D:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\255710\ folder so it looks like it's a Steam problem.
